We've done quite a few Escape Rooms and have been successful.
Kinda got cocky. We did the 'Night at the Museum' room and got put in our place. The room was very challenging and fun. A lot to discover. If you are looking for a challenge, check it out.

We love this escape room! Its super close to our home and weve done multiple rooms with families and friends. This particular time our booking was lost and the facility was closed when we arrived. I called the location and the game master was there within ten minutes. They handled it all very well. We look forward to booking with them again.
